VENUS POINT LIGHT.
What Lightkeeper Campbell has to
Say About 1t.

Say About 1t.
SAVANNAH, GA, Oct. %. Editor Morn
ing Neos: In the issue of your paper of
Oct. H. there was an article headed Lights
Still Neglected" 1t appears therein that
Inspector Lamberton Investigated the man
ner in which the Savannah river lights
were attended to- and his report to the
Light House Board is also published. In
reference to the Venus Point light he said,
Mr.. Campbell who has charge of Venus
Point range, does not live on Tybee Island,
and does not employ negroes about the sta
ton" Your paper made the following
comment thereon: "CampbelPs family lives
at Tybee, and he spends a good deal
of his time there; if he does not employ the
negroes then he gets work out of them for
nothing Mr.. Lamberton is a careful, con-
scientious and respectable inspector, and his
report, founded ON facts, should remove the
impression endeavored to be created by your
paper. In addition to his report | desire to
say that | have been a resident of Savannah
for thirty-ive years, and in all my
public and private relations have been
honest and faithful. Since l took
charge of Venus Point light l have
performed all the duties connected there
with, and have never neglected the same.
While my family does live on Tybee Island
/ assert, without the fear of contradiction,
that do not live there. | have not visited
my family in three months. | have never
employed negroes to assist me, nor have
gotten work out of them for nothing.

/ have made few inquiries as to factory
labor. but what have learned gives me the
impression that wherever men predominant
in number the condition of women employees
is improving. Wherever women predoml-
nate there is little change. This means
simply that trades unions may reduce the
hours of labor, benefitting women incident
ally. Women's unions, when they exist,
are not commonly strong enough to accom-
plish much.
THE APPEALS TO Us FOR HELP
are increasing; not falling off"
This was the reply at the office of the
Working Women's Protective Union when
put my question as to the present condi-
ton of the workingwonen of the city.
The Protective Union, now in its twenty
fourth year, is an organization whose OBJECT
is the legal protection of workingwomen
from imposition. 1t is unique in its work
ings and has done an incalculable amount
of good. 1t has, so its records show, lnves
tiCated nearly II 900 complaints on the part
of working girls of fraud regarding their
wages. 1t has furnished employment to
$4,000 applicants. has collected sums rang
ing from soc. to $500 for otherwise helpless
women for work done and not paid for, and
has answered over 100000 applications, all
without charge
The calls upon us last year were more in
number than ever before No, that does
not mean any increase of distress among
workingwomen. The average amount col
lecte1 for each applicant was trihe larger
than usual, which might mean trife better
wages promised. The greater number of
applications probably means nothing more
than that with every year our work becomes
better known, and women who before felt
themselves defenSeless now come to us for
help The condition of workingwomen is
probably improN ing, but it will be long be
fore there cease to be hundreds in need of
the help we give"
The general outlook for self-dependent
women in all lines is probably better than
it ever was before. Business habits and at
tention to health are thestwo great needs
As very bright girl who is earning good
wages puts it, AS fast as we learn to do
something that somebody wants done, and
stop trying to carry the drawing room into
the office, we get on very well"

and the artificial effects of cosmetics, no
matter how deftly applied, can never make
beautiful or attractive one who is subject
to emaciation, nervous debility or any form
of female weakness. These must be reached
by inward application, and not by outward
attempts at concealment, and the ladies
may take hope from the fact that thousands
of their sisters have made themselves more
radiant and beautiful by the use of Dr.
Pierce's "Favorite Prescription" than they
could ever hope to do by the aid of the APP
planes of the toilet.

chestnut Lottie c and won cleverly in
las. Budd Doble then made his appear
ance with Charley Hogan and running
mate, to beat the record of the first
named, 2:1219, and succeeded in cutting
off another quarter of a second. The
running mate did not help but rather
retarded the trOtter, who pulled the
collar upon his companions neck when
the wire was reached. After some delay
the pacing race, 2:25 class for 5000, was
started. and this was
THE CONCLUDING Event
of the day. Although Johnny Woods
won the first heat handiIy, the judges
came to the conclusion that there was
some double dealing regarding Uncle
Eb and Bessie Moore, and took their
regular drivers out of the sulkies and
substituted new men in their places.
But this did not affect the result,
Johnny capturing two more heats and
the race, while Bessie had to content
herself with second honors, the same as
in the first heat. A summary of this
race was:

contest for $1,000 purse between the
PAGER, Johnston, record s:064 and the
trotter, Harry Wilkes, 2:13, the former
being handicapped by a road wagon.
Another big event will be the free-for- all
pace, in which Little Mac, Mike Wilkes,
Jewett and Gossip, Jr., will contest for a
81, 500 purse. There will also be an auc-
ton sale of valuable trOtting stock

generally regulates itself after violent
collision with the authorities, and, aside
from the bad blood it engenders, does
no harm. Religious intolerance is very,
very old. Our Puritan fathers left the
old country because it was oppressive
to them, and then established it here
because it came natural for them to
construe their religious liberty into the
exercise of authority over some one
else. 1t is the same old story-promote

Clingtone came on the track
looking In fit condition for his race, but
there was every confidence in Patron.
He had met and defeated all corners
without doing his best. He was a great
favorite at first and sold in the pools on
big odds. First it was $l20 against $50
Patron, then s25 on Patron and 81 on
The Demon, but finally the tide turned
and The Demon was the favorite,
selling at S25 to $40. However great the
confidence Patron could not win to-day.
The cause of his defeat is subject for
much speculation. The time was slow,
whereas the weather was fine and the
track fast. Mr.. Emery, the owner. says
the horse was s'off" physically. There
were rumors rife after the race that
Patron had been drugged, but this is
discredited by most hOrSemen. The race
was for purse of $1,000 offered by the
Cleveland Driving Park company.
After Patron had lost two heats the
bell rang for the fourth heat but Mr..
Emery refused to allow his horse to
ness, whereupOn the judges sent Cling
stone a walk-Over mile and awarded
him the purse. In the first heat Cling
stone had the best send off but Patron
passed him at the half. Clingstone trotted
a great clip then and would have won
the heat but broke, and Patron went
under the wire in 2:17. Pools at this
point sold S25 to 81 in Patrons favor.
Clingstone got the start in the second
heat but was soon Tapped by Patron,
who broke badly, and when he was
brought down he was one hundred yards
in the rear. He went at
it again and came into the
home stretch hugging Clingstone's
wheel. The pace was too great, how
ever, and the demon took the heat in
2:19. Still Patron was the favorite in
the pool rooms. Patron passed Cling
stone in the third heat at the half. At
the three-quarter pole he led by two
lengths, On the home stretch Cling
stone was given the whip and came
under the wire seven lengths in the
lead in 2:19. Pools then sold S25 to S12
on Clingstone. 1t was late and
darkness was coming ON, and, to the
surprise of every one, Mr.. Emery,
Patrons owner, refused to bring his
horse out. ClingStone was therefore
driven over the course in slow time and
thus won the contest. Mr.. Emery de-
clared that Patron was sick, and that it
was too dark to trOt. The summary is
as follows:

able Location.
At the meeting held last night in the
Germania hall, on Main street n. E., to
discuss the park question, there was a
crowded attendance. AID. Mareck
again presided as chairman
and Percy Long acted as sec
rotary. The committee appoint
ed for the purpose of examining
and selecting a location for park in the
First ward, reported that it had investi-
gated the advantages of the tract of land
lying between Main and Marshall
streets and Sixth and Fourth avenues
northeast, and would report favorably
on the site. The report was signed by
John P. Josefe, j. E. Kertson, John M.
Gowan, ID. E. Blaisdell, Cornelius Line
han, G. A. Hansen. Aid. Hanscom, one
of the park committee, incidentally
stated that this propertywould cost about
$4,000, and Mr.. Long has been directed
to inform the park commissioners of the
fact. A long and amusing discussion
occurred, in which some remarkable
pieces of satire at the expense of
monopolists wanting poor man to give
up too much, were hurled at the audi
ence in reference to the University ave-
nue. boulevard matter. Finally the
motion made by Mr.. Bowen and unani-
mously adopted was to this effect: That

Sick Race Horses.

NEW YORK, Sept. ia peculiar cpl
demic has broken out in the stables of
j. B. Haggin, both at the Sheepshead
Bay and Brooklyn race tracks, it's preva-
lence accounting for the non-appearance
of his racers in the contests of the last
few days. The trouble is one that defies
veterinarians to classify, but it is be-
lieved by them to be due to the hay with
which the horses are fed. The hay
comes from California, and as the dis
ease has not appeared among other
horses or other strings, it is believed to
be the feed. Ben Ali, Hidalgo, Preci-
osia. Santa Rita, Milton, Guarantee,
Mercury and Fitz James, are among the
horses now suffering. The peculiar dis
ease first shows itself in soreness in
the feet and ankles, and develops into
running sores, first ON the ankles and
then on the sides and backs of the
horses. These sores last but few days
and disappear as suddenly as they come.
A number of the horses that have been
suffering from this skin or blood trouble
are already recovering.
